Walked out to the taxi stand and several drivers yelling and screaming, turned around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be there in April on the Joy! We're trying to figure out where the best place to go is. Little French Key sounds alright, if not a wee bit dramatic given the "hostages." From what I can tell that's the old owner just engaging in some monkey business as the Google reviews look fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JIMESOPUS Posted January 27, 2023 Author #104 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Another little secret observed tonight at Shakers, when it's busy they have at least two premix martinis ( chocolate and rum cake ) in the rack. What ever was in that bottle it wasn't chocolate but they coated the glass so heavy in a attempt to make taste better and yes they charged me the $3.60 upcharge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahwalker2007 Posted January 27, 2023 #105 Share Posted January 27, 2023 I’ve heard the mini golf is no longer available on the breakaway. Is this true?? I’ve gotta let my kids down easy if it is, they helped pick this ship and itinerary because of the mini golf and rock wall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JIMESOPUS Posted January 27, 2023 Author #107 Share Posted January 27, 2023 No laundry specials but was use our perk and we both got 1 bag each, surprised that it came back within a day, so far the only thing that was fast. On the account front, still missing $100 OBC, ship blaming Miami but that's an easy out. Welcome to Cozumel - rain / thunderstorms all around, this is one port we were looking forward to.

Is the pyramid one of the Hotel Xcaret waterslide features? I think the pyramid is part of the water park that is not too far away from the pier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was very disappointed in April when we boarded to discover both were gone, with apparently no plans to replace as they weren't back in September or January.

Oh well! We are use to Holland America where there is only a pool for them so the ropes course and water slides will be a big upgrade on there own!

We were kind of in shock when we saw that, through out the evening when things got slow they did mix a martini. Shakers used to be great, not here anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JIMESOPUS Posted January 28, 2023 Author #120 Share Posted January 28, 2023 So somewhere in the Gulf it's day #7 for most and day #19 for us. Should be at the Mississippi around 9 PM, port taxes start once again. Windy has it as smooth sailing north, we are several hours behind the Carnival Glory, just like this past Sunday. We have been talking a lot about past 18 days, sailing with an average of 4000 passengers, crew shortage, and long lines almost everywhere, I think we are done with " bigger " ships. Today, one more walk around, early dinner at Cagney's and then to the Prom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JIMESOPUS Posted January 28, 2023 Author #121 Share Posted January 28, 2023 breakfast today at Taste, food was hot, missing some sides - again we had to wait. There were open tables when we sat down, they remained empty the entire time there. Bar servers, O Sheehan's and junior officers helping the normal staff. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be interesting to find out if the staff shortages is only due to layoffs...or if they can actually find enough workers in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JIMESOPUS Posted January 29, 2023 Author #124 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Arrived early back in New Orleans today, hope to get off before the rain. Going to stay a few days before heading home. Yesterday was a blur, said goodbye to some of the crew that we sailed with back in November, some are getting off today as well. Have some more pictures and the dailies which I'll post soon. Jim 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
